(BBC) – American Denny McCarthy has withdrawn from the Travelers Championship before the start of Friday’s second round after testing positive for coronavirus.
England’s Matt Wallace and American Bud Cauley, who played with McCarthy in the first round, tested negative but Cauley has also withdrawn.
The players’ caddies have all tested negative.

McCarthy, 27, is the third player to test positive since the PGA Tour restarted on June 11.
“I was feeling pretty tired and sore after the round yesterday but didn’t think much of it because I had practised a lot Monday to Wednesday,” said world number 180 McCarthy, who shot a first round three-under-par 67.

“Last night, I woke up in the middle of the night with additional aches and soreness and sensed something was off.”
Under the PGA Tour’s response plan, 16 tests will be administered for those who had close contact with McCarthy.

McCarthy will self-isolate for 10 days, according to Tour protocols.
Cauley, who tested negative twice on Friday, said he withdrew “out of an abundance of caution for my peers and everyone involved with the tournament.”
Nick Watney withdrew from the RBC Heritage after testing positive last week, while Cameron Champ did so at a pre-tournament screening before the Travelers.
World number four Brooks Koepka and Northern Ireland’s Graeme McDowell also withdrew from the tournament in Cromwell, Connecticut as a precaution after their caddies tested positive.
